Juan Mario de la Espriella meets today the materialization of a new project. After finishing his musical union with the singer Peter Manjarrés, which was announced at the end of last year to the best, comes the Sincelejo, Sucre accordion, with his own musical suggestion; group "Los de Juancho of Juancho de la Espriella".

According to de la Espriella, it is a project that is already beginning, and in principle they will present themselves with the successes they have already registered during their career. "We choose about 20 of the most successful songs I played with Diomedes, with Silvestre, with Peter, with Martín, with Mono Zabaleta, which I wrote in" Mi Esencia ", also on the album I took and we put together an unforgettable show, a show of remembrance, "Juancho explained.

The harmonizer hopes that when he leaves this project at the level of shows and presentations, they can continue at a stage where he posts with Julio Rojas Jr. and Carlos Mario Parra, the two young talents that accompany him in this new musical adventure.

& # 39; Los de Juancho & # 39; is not a new idea, it is rather a purpose that Espriella had long ago. In fact, as he recalled, he had been thinking about this since he was unlike Silvestre Dangond, motivated to work with his name and allow new boys to show through their career and recognition he has achieved over those years. But when he was already in his plan, the separation of Peter Manjarrés with Sergio Luis Rodríguez was presented, then he received a suggestion from the singer, they reached an agreement and the project was temporarily suspended.

Now that he is back alone, the idea begins to consolidate, representing the ability of the accordionist to have something more stable and give him more confidence.

Meanwhile, for his teammates, Julio Rojas Jr. and Carlos Mario Parra, "Los de Juancho", proves to be a good platform for showing and continuing to grow in the music scene.

The youths, 22 and 25, respectively, are clear about the commitment they are taking now, and the great responsibility that the reputable accordion player places on them.
